Anywhoozle, it seems an old friend of mine had a pic of me from those days.
Full Version: me as a minor celebrity
In my past life, before becoming the POAC guy, I was a minor celebrity in Kansas City. Some of you know the stories. I was an artist and basically lived in a coffee shop where I did a lot of my work. (Artist)

Quite possibly. That was a really bohemian neighborhood. People would walk around smoking weed out in the open all the time. Not me though. Drugs are bad, mmm-kay.

A minor artist...well, by now you should think of yourself as an adult artist, unless, like tadpoles, artists also grow up to be something else.

Minor celebrity. MAJOR artist. =-)
My work would sell for a few thousand a piece. Which sounds like a lot. And i guess it is. But it takes months to create a piece that's worth a few thousand dollars. Not worth the effort.
Now I make furniture and monsters for Halloween
OK, Here's a guy at the bar (not me) and you can compare it to the painting
and then here's another to reference the painting
and here's me with a mouth full of delicious beverage
OK, I have to quit playing and get back to work.
My mistake. You are an adult celebrity now.
Very cool.

No, but I play one on TV?
No, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night?
No, but I did just save a bunch of money on my auto insurance by switching to Geico?
I don't know if I'll ever be comfortable being conmsidered a celebrity for anything but my art. Didn't I say I was getting back to work? Oh How I do love talking about ME! I'm ready for my close up, Mr. DeMille...
LOL.

That's not me. I was just using it to show the interior of the bar. but you are right, Sky. I painted my environment. I have piles of sketchbooks of nothing but people in bars and coffee houses.
